The first time I tried to call I got forwarded to somebody's phone which just rang and rang. So instead I filled out their service request form on their website. The called me back before 9am the next day. We set up an appointment for the next Thursday. They took the time to understand the specific job, as other companies I called heard "ceiling fan" and seemed to assume that it was just a simple replacement of an existing light with a fan. Two guys arrived right on time at 8:30am on the day of service. They got right to work and the whole thing, including going up in the attic and fishing the wires, was done in about an hour and half. They even vacuumed the carpet after they were done.
Description of Work: Installed a ceiling fan in a room which hadn't had an overhead light before, so they also installed a new electrical outlet box in the ceiling and ran the wires to the existing switch on the wall.

They arrived early at 8:30 am, I was expecting them at 9 am. They were scheduled for 2.5 days of work, which was completed by 3:30 pm on the first day. The night before we marked the outlets and where we wanted circuits added with blue masking tape. When they arrived, we walked through the house, and all the work, and we reviewed the quote. The Electricity was turned off at 9:15 or so. We left to go to a caf at 9:30, with the intent to return by 2 pm. We made it back at 3 pm, and they had already started to clean up at that point. They had finished all the quoted work, except for converting the last outlet to it's own circuit. They had wanted to discuss the except implementation with me before finishing for the day. After discussing, they decided to finish it then and there, rather than coming back for one circuit the next day. In all, they finished it in less than 20 minutes. We spent an additional 30 minutes reviewing the work, and going over the new electrical panel.
Description of Work: New electrical Panel and Point of Service installed. From 4 overloaded double tapped fused circuits to nearly 14 circuit breaker circuits. 12 GFI plugs installed. 5 totally new dedicated purpose circuits added, including 2 in-floor, 1 out side all weather outlet, a dishwasher circuit, and converting a outlet to it's own circuit.

It was a great experience. The broken smoke alarm was in a rental home we have in Vancouver. We live in Portland and did not know an electrician up there. We searched Angie's List and found Prairie. They were available to go the next day. They arranged the time with the tenant. I asked them if they wanted a credit card and they said no they would just bill me. The whole process was seamless.

Response from Prairie Electric Inc
OUR BILLING OF $562 PLUS SALES TAX WAS CONSISTENT WITH THE BID PROVIDED TO THE CUSTOMER, AND ACCEPTED BY THE CUSTOMER IN ADVANCE OF DOING THE WORK. WE BELIEVE THAT THE PRICE CHARGED FOR THE PROJECT WAS FAIR. A LARGE PORTION OF THE PROJECT COST RELATED TO THE ELECTRICAL WIRING.

Called prairie at 6PM. We were told we would receive a call first thing in the morning and we did. They called about 10 minutes prior to arriving (a nice touch). The servicemen were friendly & professional. They carefully explained everything to my wife and did a very nice job of repairs. At first, it was just a problem with a blown light fixture in the kitchen. They finished and left. Then, my wife found we had no electricity in the bathroom. Without so much as a whimper, they came right back out and took care of the bathroom. THAT'S customer service!
Description of Work: We have an old house and a light fixture blew out. Once that was repaired, we discovered we had no power in the bathroom.

I was impressed with the customer service of Prairie Electric. They called the day before the appointment to confirm. Tom, the driver, called me about a half hour before his appointment to let me know he was on the way. He was both polite, informative, and he was VERY thorough in checking possible origins of the problem. Most importantly, he fixed the problem. My only issue with the service is that it seemed to take longer than it should have, considering the easy fix.
Description of Work: I live in a small house that is close to 100 years old. Some of the wiring has been replaced; some is quite old. A scary flash from an outlet occurred when I plugged a heater into an outlet on one of the walls, and everything electrical near the wall quit running...the outlet on the other side of the wall and my ceiling fan (its switch was also located on that wall). After much investigation, Tom of Prairies Electric went into my attic where he found a loose connection that had apparently shorted everything out. An easy fix. He also discovered a dangerous wiring situation in the attic and re-routed the wiring through pipe to make it safe.

Job 1: While the serviceman was at my house he took the initiative to cap off the wires leading to my hot water heater that were loose. They were very pleasant and puntual. I called them the next week to move an electrical outlet for me. Job 2: Serviceman was very knowledgable and offered advice on where to place the outlet.
Description of Work: Job 1: Some wires had come loose at a junction and shorted the lights in my house. Prairie came out and re-tied the wires and capped off the junction. It took about 15 minutes($120). Job 2: Moved an existing outlet down to make room for a new window($80).

They were outstanding! The price was competitive, the work was well done and completed in a timely fashion. They took extreme care to avoid disrupting the property in any way and restored everything perfectly when completed. I have used them for several more small electrical projects with the same results.

PRAIRIE SAID THEY WOULD BE AT MY HOUSE AT 8:00 AM. THE TECH CALLED AT 8:00 TO SAY HE WOULD BE A FEW MINUTES LATE, THEN SHOWED UP AT 8:10, WHICH WAS NO PROBLEM. HE HAD THE PERMITS READY BEFORE THEY ARRIVED. THE HOT TUB WAS TO ARRIVE THE DAY BEFORE, BUT WAS DELAYED. THE ELECTRICIAN WENT AHEAD, AND DID ALL THE WIRING UP TO THE DISCONNECT, AND THEN, AT MY REQUEST, TOLD ME HOW TO COMPLETE THE HOOKUP SO IT WOULD PASS INSPECTION. HE SAID TO CALL IF WE NEEDED THEM TO COME OUT AND FINISH THE JOB. LATER THAT EVENING, I WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE THE FINAL CONNECT, BUT IT WOULDNT WORK. MY WIFE WAS COMING HOME LATER THE NEXT DAY, AND I WANTED TO HAVE IT DONE FOR HER ARRIVAL. I CALLED THE OFFICE AT 8:00, AND THEY SENT SOMEONE BY 11:00 THAT DAY TO FIX THE ERROR, AND ENSURE IT WAS UP TO CODE. MY WIFE WAS SO HAPPY, AND SURPRISED. WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH THE TUB WHATSOEVER. PRAIRIE ELECTRIC HAS EXCELLENT SERVICE, FAIR PRICES (THE QUOTE WAS DEAD ON), AND GREAT STAFF. I RECOMMEND THEM HIGHLY!!
